Declawing of Cats.
If you have ever loved a cat, you have probably had at least one moment where you looked at a shredded couch arm, a clawed-up door frame, or a mysterious line of tiny punctures in your favorite chair and thought, “Why this? Why here? Why now?”
Declawing is one of those topics that can make good, loving pet parents feel defensive, guilty, confused, or heartbroken. Some people were told years ago that it was a routine procedure.
Declawing is a procedure that has generated increasing concern among veterinarians, animal welfare experts, and cat guardians.
The decision to add a feline to the family sometimes accompanies a decision as to whether to have the cat’s claws removed.
Aside from being overweight Belle and Paws were de-clawed from their previous owners.
